2:19 am	The Mithril Awards Yes, the Mithril Awards are happening. I know this is true because she has been swearing at the computer for the last several hours. I tried shredding a few kleenex to ease her pain, but it didn't seem to work. There has been some odd activity. Something to do with them being married for 23 years. I don't know why they are even counting the 20 where I was not present. They do not matter. I finally visited the horses. Or rather, I was placed in the truck and driven there. It was very dirty and full of wonderful smells. It was too hot to play with the baby horse. She even let me go off of the leash, which was nice of her. I didn't wander too far, because the area was new and the horses, well, they aren't exactly frightening; it's just that they--they are just--so--big. Even the baby one is considerably bigger than I expected. And so I respectfully touched noses with them and withdrew to observe them. She had me sit with some other humans, including a small one that wanted me to play. He thought that if he threw a ball I would actually bring it to him! Of all the nerve! She explained that I do not do "fetch". Dogs fetch. I am a Poodle. Mia will fetch, but she is a Ball Addict and cannot help herself. Sad, really, to see a Ball Addict in action. I visited with all the humans, and I even let the small one have his pizza. I did not ask for a piece of it. It smelled bad, and I knew that it was a type I do not like. Mia would have eaten it, but Mia will eat anything. They bought me a bottle of cold water for the trip home. It was not my brand, but I drank it anyway. I will have to go and see the horses more often. Perhaps this time they will be eating proper food and I will be able to get a snack. (4 Comments |Comment on this)

11:59 pm	For Our British Friends We all hope & pray that you are well, and that the horror which has been inflicted upon London has not harmed you. The cowards who attacked the innocent will reap their reward, and it will not involve 72 virgins. Unless those virgins happen to be pirhanas. (Comment on this)

10:20 pm	I am speechless with shock, rage, anger, dismay...I cannot even begin to put into words the BETRAYAL that she has committed! I am no longer the youngest! She has--acquired--a baby horse!!!!   I have NO idea how this came about. I  have known about the Horses for some time now. But to actually have the nerve to permit them to reproduce, thereby taking precious attention away from ME? I am shocked, I tell you, shocked! Dear readers, I have no idea what will happen next. She has pictures of HE Who currently Has No Name, and I must confess that he is cute-- in a  prey-animal sort of way, you understand.  http://www.geocities.com/khazar_khum/black_colt_01.html They do not even know what color he is--shameful, I say. And no, I am not jealous. I am merely going to go and shred some kleenex, because. (5 Comments |Comment on this)

12:27 pm	She Actually Did It Yes, she actually finished her project, that "Cursed Queen" thing she was always fretting over. Instead of spending her time playing with me, or petting me, or getting me treats from the cabinet where Tarquin the cat can't get them, she spent time on some silly story. Do you know how often she panicked over that thing? She was always worried about it. Always. Then she'd curl up on the bed, kick me off the pillows (Yes, the pillows!) and whine. Of course Mia would always go and lick her to help. Ha! Not me. I know better. I just sat on her head, to remind her that I was using the pillows first, and she needed to get off the bed. Then she'd stare at the monitor and say they weren't talking to her. Well, I certainly didn't hear anything, and my hearing is much better than hers. So, just to show her that someone important was listening, I would go and bathe her. When that didn't work, I tried to climb in her lap. Not that she has a lap, mind you, but still, it's the thought that counts, right? So I would demand that she stop this silliness and hug me. It never quite worked the way I wanted it to--she invariably said I made her "feel better", which was her euphemism for starting back at writing. Hmmph! But at least I got a hug out of it. And him! He's always encouraging her, even when he could be hugging me. Humans make no sense at all, unless they are doing their duty, which is, of course, pampering me. what is she saying? Another project? Well, I will have to see about that! (1 Comment |Comment on this)

6:32 pm	Me The Beautiful I see that she has devoted time to all sorts of things, except the one that really matters--me. My name is (and she had better get this right) International Champion La Marka Mercedes Blanc. It's only fitting that she use *my* picture on this journal. They took that picture the day I finished my puppy championship. Naturally, I wasn't about to let the other people take me in, so I insisted that my *mom* show me. Never mind that she had never shown a dog before. I had never been at a show, either, so what could possibly go wrong? I even won my group--no thanks to Mom, who tried to make me stand in one place instead of letting me show the judges my fancy dance steps. Well, I showed her in Best in Show--I lay on my side and rolled in the grass before the judges looked at me. Mom used her favorite name for me--Hellspawn! So I know I did that right. Mom just moved her basket of medication off of my favorite chair, so now I can get a proper rest. Sincerely, Mercedes (6 Comments |Comment on this)
